The clownfish arrived healthy and active. It quickly adapted to the tank and has been swimming around with energy. The color is vivid and it seems happy with the anemone I provided. Easy to care for and a great addition to my reef tank.

It’s a beautiful fish and has been a highlight in my aquarium. I feed it daily with frozen brine shrimp and it eats well. It stays calm and doesn’t stress other fish. A little more research on water parameters would help, but overall very satisfied.

I bought this clownfish for my beginner marine setup. It’s easy to care for and has been thriving. The white stripes stand out well against the tank background. I recommend it for both new and experienced aquarists.
